Saturday Morning Coffee for Saturday, January 2, 2021
Welcome back to a New Year and another edition of Saturday Morning Coffee! In todays episode, we discuss the Clemson-Ohio State football game, Covid-19 vaccine, New Years Resolutions, and ballot integrity.
Welcome back to a New Year and another edition of Saturday Morning Coffee! Reese discusses the disappointing Clemson-Ohio State game, and some valuable life lessons the game teaches. Reese gives an update on the progress of Tom Herron following his stroke, and how the WTKN Family "broke the switchboard" at the hospital by calling in such numbers to check on Tom during his hospital stay. Reese discussed upcoming events in the capital, including possible objections to the certification of the November election results in the Congress. We discuss an update to efforts to distribute the COVID-19 vaccine, and problems at DHEC and its failure to keep the public apprised of its efforts to distribute the vaccine and inoculate the population.
Reese discusses a new section that has opened in Lichfield Beach on the Murrells Inlet bike trail, and a nice bike ride enjoyed over the weekend, along with some reflections from a visit to a coffee shop on the ride. We discuss the history of the "lockdowns" for COVID-19 and the need to return our lives to something that is more normal. We discuss the harm that lockdowns and slow-downs in the economy have caused for small business. Reese discusses recent experience with DHEC, "contract tracing" and how his household responded to COVID-19.
We discuss the "New Years Resolution" phenomenon, which resolutions often work, and which do not. We also discuss the "most overworked" words of 2020, and several words and phrases from 2020 that we are sick of hearing.
We discuss the critical issue before us - "ballot integrity" - and the need to fix the problems that appear to have compromised the 2020 election. We review the frighteningly accurate predictions made by the "Transition Integrity Project" - which were discussed on this program, and how they all seem to have played out just the way many of those participating in the project predicted. Reese discusses the need to "fix" these issues going forward, and how we must fix this issue - which is now as important as any issue that we have to deal with.
Reese concludes the show with some words of wisdom on some things we should all focus on in 2021.
